Mies
Mies is a municipality in the district of Nyon in the canton of Vaud in Switzerland. It is approximately half-way between Geneva and Nyon. Mies sits on Lake Geneva (''Lac Léman''), which lies to the southeast and is 410m above sea-level. The highest point of Mies is 455m above sea level. The part of Mies touching the lake measures . To the southwest lies Versoix, in the Canton of Geneva and to the northwest Chavannes-de-Bogis, which houses a major shopping mall. To the north and west lie the Communes of Tannay, Bogis-Bossey, and Coppet. Mies is separated from the neighbouring commune of Tannay by a small ravine containing a stream called ''le nant du Torry''. Mies is one of the communes of the Canton de Vaud which are collectively known as the "Terre-Sainte". ==History== It is thought that the name Mies comes from its location of half way ("mi-") between Geneva and Nyon, or maybe because it is half way between Versoix and Coppet. Remains of settlements have been found all the way back to the Bronze Age, but the first documentary reference to Mies was in 1345 under the name ''Miez''.〔 Later on, additional ways of writing the village appeared: Miez, Mier, Myez, Myer, Myes and only in 1912 Mies. With the conquest of the Canton de Vaud (Waadt, in German) by Bern in the year 1536, the village came under the administration of the district of Nyon. Mies thus became Switzerland's border village - with France - from 1536 until the creation of the Canton of Geneva in 1815.
